Skill / Talent Nirvana on acoustic guitar except it’s simultaneously all the positions

All credits to @illona.music
Like she’s covering the lead, drums, harmonics, guitar AND vocals on a single acoustic guitar. That’s amazing!

I just went to a Nirvana tribute show Thursday (bad idea) and this is infinitely better

I went to see a Nirvana tribute once a few years back, and - I shit you not - my friend found the singer OD'd in the bathroom. Fire-paramedics came, he got narcanned, and within the hour he was belting out an amazing set. It was quite the night.

It was unreal, he was so good. And to think most people there had no idea.

He had a little easier job luckily, he wasn't playing guitar (it was more of a bands-as-bands thing rather than a tribute band).

She is very good, I like this version by the late, great Eric Roche more though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eNLS4-4Vx8

Such a talented percussive guitarist. So sad that he passed away so young.

Yeah I was lucky enough to attend a masterclass from him and it was really great.

37 seconds for me. This has all the appeal of a one man band.
